At equilibrium the concentrations of:
[HSO₄⁻] = 0.10 M;
[SO₄²⁻] = 0.037 M;
[H⁺] = 0.037 M;
There is initially very little H+ and no SO₄²⁻ in the solution. A salt is KHSO₄⁻. All KHSO₄⁻ will split apart into K⁺ and HSO₄⁻ ions. [HSO₄⁻] will initially be present at a concentration of 0.14 M.
HSO₄⁻ will not gain H⁺ to produce H₂SO₄ since H₂SO₄ is a strong acid. HSO₄⁻ may act as an acid and lose H⁺ to form SO₄²⁻. Let the final H⁺ concentration be x M. Construct a RICE table for the dissociation of HSO₄²⁻.
